E.g., 100 - 10 =90 + 9 = 99

Screenshot of a bullet point from the linked page: Creation of the Administration for a Healthy America (AHA), which will combine multiple agencies — the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health (OASH), Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), and National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) — into a new, unified entity. This centralization will improve coordination of health resources for low-income Americans and will focus on areas including, Primary Care, Maternal and Child Health, Mental Health, Environmental Health, HIV/AIDS, and Workforce development. Transferring SAMHSA to AHA will increase operational efficiency and assure programs are carried out because it will break down artificial divisions between similar programs.
RIP SAMHSA / HRSA. Fingers crossed for the TTC Network, the Opioid Response Network, and countless other people and teams trying to help reduce harms from drug and alcohol use. #medLibs

Trump-numerous states introducing Bible literacy classes, giving students the option of studying the Bible. Starting to make a turn back? Great! Rabia O’chaudry-according to the Bible you should be put to death for adultery.
Just saying…
Trump and Musk are killing cancer research AND they want you and your kids to get sick and die.

Bird flu outbreaks are driving up egg prices for families.
Now, Elon Musk wants to shut down USAID, the agency responsible for monitoring outbreaks in dozens of foreign countries.
With egg prices increasing grocery bills, why halt efforts to prevent a U.S. bird flu crisis?

Even if Los Angeles were low on water, Trump’s executive orders wouldn’t help with that, because the federal government’s canal system doesn’t actually deliver any water to the Los Angeles area.
